From what I just read it could be piloted by 1 pilot under VFR. Obviously the fog may have affected that.
Hmmm, not that Ive ever heard of. Guess its possible though. Used to fly on those all the time.

My entire span of being a serious sportsfan involved Bryant as part of it in one way or another, won't ever forget his '96 draft night, had a #8 poster on my wall as a middle schooler. Unbelievable tragedy, God bless the Bryants.

In what capacity? Flying offshore? Chartered for hire flights require 2 but owner operator can operate single pilot

Taken many s-76 flights offshore
Always with two pilots
I loved the 76, Climate control, so smooth, very comfortable

He's 7 months younger than me. I don't know if I'd call this the prime of life like a previous poster but it definitely isn't old. Life cut way too short.
I'm older and I'm rocking this part of my life son.
Sad to hear about Kobe.

ESPN reporting his 13 daughter was with him.

Yea offshore. And that makes sense.

I'm fine but I'd be lying if I said 25 wasn't better from a physical standpoint

It's being reported that another child and parent lost their lives as well. What a sad sad story.

Hangovers certainly weren't as debilitating at 25.
